Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 273 Twin Transformation Nutrients

Immediately, like a fledgling returning to its nest, she opened her arms and, with a fragrant breeze, rushed towards the slightly illusory figure on the throne, wanting to throw herself into that familiar embrace that made her feel absolutely safe.

However-

She missed her target.

Yali's figure passed through Harosa's consciousness without any hindrance, and she stumbled before regaining her balance.

She turned around in astonishment, looking at the figure that appeared somewhat transparent and was formed from pure divine consciousness. Only then did she fully realize that her husband's powerful divine king body had been completely destroyed in the previous fierce battle.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across her beautiful face, then transformed into a reproachful, tearful expression as she pouted and said, "I almost forgot, you're just a soul now—"

She looked nothing like the majestic god-king who ruled over the laws of life; she was clearly a little girl coquettishly pouting at her sweetheart, so adorable it was intoxicating.

Seeing his wife's rare display of girlishness, Harosa couldn't help but reveal a smile of doting affection and helplessness on his ethereal face.

He deliberately asked in a lighthearted, teasing tone, "What a pity? Is it a pity you didn't get to hold your husband, or a pity for that divine body that toiled day and night?"

Yali blushed slightly at his words, rolled her eyes at Harossa, and admitted with a touch of coquettishness, "Hehe, I have them all."

Her tone conveyed both regret for not being able to touch the real embrace and sorrow for the divine body to which she had poured countless efforts, now annihilated.

The brief joke dispelled the somber and heavy atmosphere following the great battle. Harosa's divine consciousness drifted closer; though unable to make physical contact, his powerful divine sense gently enveloped Yali, conveying silent comfort and affection.

Yali calmed down, feeling the familiar fluctuations of his divine soul, her face radiating happiness and contentment. As long as he was still there, and his divine soul remained intact, there was always a way to reshape his divine body.

The young couple lingered for a moment in this victorious starry sky, enjoying the tranquility of surviving the ordeal.

After a while, Yali took the arm of Harosa's consciousness (although it was just a virtual arm-holding), and the two of them looked at the two huge, slowly rotating dragon-horse twin stars in the starry sky.

"These two planets have extremely high energy levels and incredibly abundant life force. What do you plan to do with them, my husband?" Yali asked softly, regaining the insight of the God of Life.

Harosa's gaze turned deep and cold, as if he were looking at two mines waiting to be tapped, his tone devoid of any emotion: "Naturally, we'll swallow them. On the Dragon-Horse Twin Stars, apart from a few pure-blooded dragons who refused to surrender and have already been eliminated, what remains are those fickle dragon-blooded creatures. Dragons are proud and untamed; since they refuse to submit, keeping them around is a threat. As for those dragon-blooded creatures, their bloodlines are mixed, and their natures are despicable; I have no interest in them. Rather than letting them cause trouble in the future, it's better to turn them into resources to nourish my Samsara God Realm."

Yali nodded; she also had little affection for those spineless dragon-blooded creatures.

But she considered things more thoroughly, reminding him, "The Dragon-Horse Twin Stars are different from the abyss planes you devoured before. They are physical planets with stable structures and enormous mass. Excessive devouring could cause drastic changes in their structure. Once a certain critical point is exceeded, causing the planet's core to collapse or even explode, the backlash would be—probably no weaker than the self-destruction of a great artifact or even a super artifact. Husband, you must be extremely careful."

"Rest assured," Harosa's divine consciousness emanated a calm and steady wave, "Your husband knows what he's doing. The Samsara Devouring is not about brute force tearing apart, but about transformation and absorption at the level of laws. I will control the intensity and proceed gradually to avoid triggering uncontrollable chain reactions."

He paused, looked at Yali, and asked, "Before this, although the life laws of these two planets were damaged, their foundations remained, and their level was not low. Would you like to take this opportunity to experience them up close? Perhaps it will benefit your life laws."

Ya Li shook her head, a knowing glint in her golden eyes. She said softly, "There's no need to consciously try to comprehend it. I just scanned it with my divine sense and sensed the root aura of its life law. This aura—I'm very familiar with it. Its source should be the Life God King of the Douluo God Realm. I've already come into contact with and studied her life law system. They share the same origin but flow differently, so it doesn't offer me much new insight."

Upon hearing this, Harosa's divine sense revealed a hint of surprise: "Oh? You can sense that? It seems my little wife's understanding of the laws of life has reached such a subtle level."

Upon hearing this, Yali rolled her eyes at Harosa with a hint of annoyance, and said in a teasing and reminiscent tone, "Hmph, you have the nerve to say that? You 'lured' me out of Shrek Academy back then just so that I would—"

Before he could finish speaking, Harosa quickly made a "shush" gesture. Although it was somewhat comical for a spiritual being to do this, his tone was clearly one of embarrassment and pleading: "Haha, let's not talk about old things, let's not talk about them! We won't say anything that's not good for marital harmony!"

Seeing her husband's rare moment of embarrassment, Ya Li burst out laughing, her laughter as bright as a hundred flowers blooming, instantly dispelling the subtle atmosphere created by the previous little "exposing of shortcomings".

She considerately changed the subject, asking, "By the way, what about the Dragon God's ultimate artifacts? The Dragon Ascension Pillar and the Dragon God's Core are incredible treasures."

Speaking of this, Harosa's tone carried a hint of regret: "The Rising Dragon Pillar—is destroyed. I was severely injured when you arrived, which was caused by Gu Yuena detonating the core of the Rising Dragon Pillar at any cost. It's truly a pity that such a top-tier super artifact has vanished into thin air."

"As for the Dragon God's core," he continued, "it has been completely fused with Gu Yuena, becoming part of her power. When her soul dissipated, I used the power of reincarnation to forcibly extract and refine the most essential insights into the laws of creation and elemental control. Although it lost its core body, these insights are invaluable."

Yali's beautiful eyes widened in surprise: "Enlightenment of the laws—can be obtained so directly?" In her view, enlightenment of the laws was the gods' own understanding and verification of the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. It was something extremely private and internal. How could it be taken away and inherited like an object?

Harosa patiently explained, "This is one of the wonderful applications of the deep development of the law of reincarnation. Reincarnation is specifically for the soul."

A being's understanding of the laws, especially after reaching the level of a god-king, is no longer merely a memory, but rather deeply etched into the very essence of their soul, like a brand. With the power of reincarnation, before their soul completely returns to nothingness, I can peel away and replicate these brandings, thus obtaining the culmination of their life's cultivation.

Yali was amazed and gave a heartfelt thumbs up, exclaiming, "Incredible! This kind of skill is simply defying the heavens and seizing the power of creation!"

Hearing his beloved wife's undisguised adoration and praise, Harosa's divine body couldn't help but straighten up a bit, revealing undisguised pride: "Of course! The Great Dao of Reincarnation of your husband is infinitely mysterious."

He paused, his tone slightly seductive, "After I've organized these insights, we can study and practice them together."

Yali tilted her head, looking at Harosa with a half-smile, slightly teasing gaze, and asked earnestly, "Really—it's just 'cultivation'?"

Harosa's consciousness trembled slightly under her gaze. He coughed twice and replied in a serious tone, "Ahem—Of course, if my lady finds it boring and wants to do something else—to liven things up, I would be happy to oblige."

Ya Li's pretty face flushed again. She spat lightly and quickly steered the conversation back on track: "You're so unserious! Let's get down to business. The most important thing is to devour these two planets first. This time, in order to provide support, the Samsara God Realm has consumed seventy or eighty percent of its accumulated Samsara Essence. The stability of the God Realm's barrier is showing signs of fatigue, and many subordinate small spaces are showing signs of declining energy levels. We must replenish it as soon as possible, otherwise the foundation of the God Realm may be damaged."

When the current state of the divine realm was mentioned, Harosa became completely serious. Indeed, while his personal combat power seemed unparalleled in this battle, it was actually supported by the entire Samsara Divine Realm at any cost.

Without the continuous infusion of that massive amount of reincarnation essence, he would have had no chance of surviving Gu Yuena's frenzied attacks, let alone ultimately turning the tide of battle.

If his original essence had been exhausted at that time, he might have truly been forced to take the desperate path of self-destructing his super artifact and gambling on a sliver of hope to escape into reincarnation.

"Okay, let's get started."

Harosa's divine consciousness became solemn. He raised his arm and made a grasping motion. Instantly, the Reincarnation Sword, which had been hovering beside him and radiating an endless stream of divine light in shades of black and crescent white, emitted a clear, melodious hum and flew into his hand.

Immediately afterward, under his precise control, the light of the Sword of Reincarnation began to differentiate and flow.

The jet-black color and the crescent-white light, like two intertwined dragons, slowly separated.

Finally, the light faded, transforming back into two divine swords of different shapes and auras: the Xuan Ying Sword, entirely black and radiating the power of devouring and transformation, and the Gui Hua Sword, as bright as the moon and flowing with the light of guidance and purification.

"go!"

With a thought, Harosa sent out the crescent-white Guihua sword.

As it flew toward Tianlong Star, the sword swelled in the wind!

It wasn't simply a matter of increasing size; rather, its form was undergoing a profound transformation. The sword became wider and thicker, its moon-white radiance flowing like living water, condensing into more complex divine runes that were closer to the essence of reincarnation.

Energy tendrils, like roots, extend from the hilt of the sword, probing into the void and connecting closely with the primordial ocean of reincarnation that permeates the star field.

In the blink of an eye, the Guihua Sword transformed into a Devouring Blade, a weapon as large as a mountain range, constructed entirely of moon-white divine gold and engraved with endless reincarnation patterns!

With a gentle yet irresistible will to devour, it descended slowly towards the scarred Tianlong Star below, like a stabilizing pillar.

"Buzz—!"

The moment the tip of the Guihua Sword touched the atmosphere of Tianlong Star, the entire planet seemed to tremble as if letting out a mournful cry. The sword did not pierce the planet's surface directly, but hovered and remained stationary tens of thousands of meters above the ground.

The next moment, with the Guihua Sword at its core, an enormous and extremely complex devouring array slowly unfolded and rotated in the sky above Tianlong Star!

The magic circle covered a large portion of the planet, and the divine runes on it flickered like stars, emitting a powerful suction force.

This suction force is not directed at matter, but rather acts directly on the planet's fundamental laws, life energy, and the dense dragon energy that has not yet completely dissipated!

Visible to the naked eye, streaks of light, each with a different color and containing different laws and immense energy, were forcibly extracted from the oceans, mountains, core, and even the remaining dragon relics of Tianlong Star, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea. They converged into dazzling torrents of energy, continuously surging into the enormous Guihua Sword high in the sky.

Tianlong Star began to lose its luster at a visible rate. The azure ocean turned gray, the vibrant land rapidly turned to sand and cracked, and the rich elemental aura became thin—the "life force" of the entire planet was being rapidly drained away!

The Guihua Sword, having devoured a massive amount of planetary essence, shone even brighter, its blade appearing to become more solid and translucent.

It acts like a highly efficient energy converter, initially purifying and transforming the chaotic planetary origins it devours, and then continuously transporting them across the endless starry sky to the Reincarnation God Realm far away in the Douluo Galaxy through the wormhole connected to the hilt of the Xuan Ying Sword!

This was not destructive plunder, but a more sophisticated and thorough form of "digestion." Harosa's goal was to squeeze every last drop of value from these two planets, transforming them entirely into nourishment for the growth of the Samsara God Realm.

Two once glorious planets are inevitably heading towards decay and destruction under the immense power of the Reincarnation Artifact. Everything that remains of them will become the foundation for the enemy's ascent to a higher level.

Harosa's divine form stood side by side with Yali, silently watching the grand spectacle of the planet being devoured.

The light of reincarnation illuminated his illusory yet resolute figure, as well as Yali's profile, which was filled with a mixture of emotion and absolute trust.

The future of the God Realm of Reincarnation will be laid with a more solid foundation by this battle. And Harosa's Path of Reincarnation will reach an unprecedented new height after absorbing the Dragon God's insights and the origins of two advanced planets.

And when the top players return in the future, Harosa will have the confidence to fight back.
